Translated from Fizika Tverdogo Tela, Vol. 46, No. 1, 2004, pp. 5–9. Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Novikov. Oleg Vladimirovich Losev: Pioneer of Semiconductor Electronics (Celebrating One Hundred Years since His Birth) M. A. Novikov Losev was born in Tver into the family of a wagon works office worker, retired staff-captain of the Tzar army, and noble man. After he graduated from a Tver non-classical secondary school in 1920, he started to work at the Nizhni Novgorod Radio Laboratory (NNRL), where V.K. LebedinskiÏ became his supervi- sor of studies. After NNRL was closed in 1928, Losev, together with other leading collaborators, moved to Leningrad to work at the Central Radio Laboratory (CRL). From 1929 to 1933, at A.F. Ioffe’s invitation, Losev carried out investigations at the Ioffe Physicote- chnical Institute. From 1937 to 1942, Losev worked at the physics department of the Leningrad First Medical Institute. On January 22, 1942, Oleg Vladimirovich Losev died of starvation during the Leningrad blockade. The place of his burial is unknown. Up to the present time, only his works connected with the development of the crystadin were widely known in this country. Losev’s first work was devoted to the crystadin and was published in 1922. In that work, Losev showed that, when an additional dc volt- age is applied to a crystal detector, it can operate as an amplifier or a generator of electromagnetic waves. In modern terms, this means that in this case a crystalline detector becomes a two-terminal device with a falling current–voltage characteristic. It should be noted that a generating detector was first demonstrated in 1910 by the Englishman W.H. Eccles.

  • A CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS How Do UK Newspapers
    LONDONGRAD IN THE UK QUALITY PRESS: A CRITICAL DISCOURSE ANALYSIS How do UK newspapers employ the term Londongrad and how has this changed over time and between different newspapers? by Ben Dukes s1424181 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Russian and Eurasian Studies at Leiden University (Universiteit Leiden) June 2015 1 Abstract This thesis examines the use of the word Londongrad in four British national newspapers and draws extensively upon the approach to Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) outlined by Richardson [2007]. The study compares the use of Londongrad in a sample of articles from two time periods: 2005-8 and 2011-14, defining how it is used and how its use has changed over time, with reference to wider social, political and cultural contexts. Results indicate that Londongrad is particularly prevalent in the right-wing press, and that its use has become more prominent over time. The thesis puts forward the argument that Londongrad lacks concrete definition but carries implicit meaning that allows for the reinforcement of negative stereotypes with regard to Russian activity in the UK. In highlighting this, the intention is to draw attention to the way in which patterns of discourse can encode prejudice. 2 Contents i. Introduction 5 ii. Outline of Chapters 6 1.

  • Culture Wars in the Media
    Culture Wars in the Media Mr Dean, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for your kind introduction and your invitation to join such an august line of guest speakers. What a pleasure it is to be here this evening, though it is a pleasure tinged with trepidation. I worry that those who work in the media have quite enough opportunity to be heard without being granted this storied platform further to inflict their views on others. I’m conscious – as we meet here this evening in a forum of ethical discussion - that journalists tend to rush for the story rather than pause too long to consider its ramifications. And, amid this accelerated news cycle, I am slightly worried that we may be losing another prime minister as we sit here. But as I stared at the big quote in a Guardian article, I was reminded that there is a conversation that needs to be addressed. “I’ve given up watching the news,” said a 60-something man in the Guardian piece. “It’s all lies.” Oh, come on. Given up? Really? Stopped when we have moved from all that theoretical stuff to pure theatrical drama? Stopped in the middle of the fallout from the Supreme Court decision. Stopped with a beleaguered prime minister on both the wrong side of the Atlantic and the wrong side of the law? We’ve always had room for different interpretations of the news. A divergence of political view is manifest in the reaction to almost every news story. Observers have always interpreted things in accordance with their underlying philosophy.

    LUNAR TOPOGRAPHIC ORTHOPHOTOMAP (LTO) AND LUNAR ORTHOPHOTMAP (LO) SERIES (Published by DMATC) Lunar Topographic Orthophotmaps and Lunar Orthophotomaps Scale: 1:250,000 Projection: Transverse Mercator Sheet Size: 25.5”x 26.5” The Lunar Topographic Orthophotmaps and Lunar Orthophotomaps Series are the first comprehensive and continuous mapping to be accomplished from Apollo Mission 15-17 mapping photographs. This series is also the first major effort to apply recent advances in orthophotography to lunar mapping. Presently developed maps of this series were designed to support initial lunar scientific investigations primarily employing results of Apollo Mission 15-17 data. Individual maps of this series cover 4 degrees of lunar latitude and 5 degrees of lunar longitude consisting of 1/16 of the area of a 1:1,000,000 scale Lunar Astronautical Chart (LAC) (Section 4.2.1). Their apha-numeric identification (example – LTO38B1) consists of the designator LTO for topographic orthophoto editions or LO for orthophoto editions followed by the LAC number in which they fall, followed by an A, B, C or D designator defining the pertinent LAC quadrant and a 1, 2, 3, or 4 designator defining the specific sub-quadrant actually covered. The following designation (250) identifies the sheets as being at 1:250,000 scale. The LTO editions display 100-meter contours, 50-meter supplemental contours and spot elevations in a red overprint to the base, which is lithographed in black and white. LO editions are identical except that all relief information is omitted and selenographic graticule is restricted to border ticks, presenting an umencumbered view of lunar features imaged by the photographic base.

  • Viscosity from Newton to Modern Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics
    Viscosity from Newton to Modern Non-equilibrium Statistical Mechanics S´ebastien Viscardy Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy, 3, Avenue Circulaire, B-1180 Brussels, Belgium Abstract In the second half of the 19th century, the kinetic theory of gases has probably raised one of the most impassioned de- bates in the history of science. The so-called reversibility paradox around which intense polemics occurred reveals the apparent incompatibility between the microscopic and macroscopic levels. While classical mechanics describes the motionof bodies such as atoms and moleculesby means of time reversible equations, thermodynamics emphasizes the irreversible character of macroscopic phenomena such as viscosity. Aiming at reconciling both levels of description, Boltzmann proposed a probabilistic explanation. Nevertheless, such an interpretation has not totally convinced gen- erations of physicists, so that this question has constantly animated the scientific community since his seminal work. In this context, an important breakthrough in dynamical systems theory has shown that the hypothesis of microscopic chaos played a key role and provided a dynamical interpretation of the emergence of irreversibility. Using viscosity as a leading concept, we sketch the historical development of the concepts related to this fundamental issue up to recent advances. Following the analysis of the Liouville equation introducing the concept of Pollicott-Ruelle resonances, two successful approaches — the escape-rate formalism and the hydrodynamic-mode method — establish remarkable relationships between transport processes and chaotic properties of the underlying Hamiltonian dynamics. Keywords: statistical mechanics, viscosity, reversibility paradox, chaos, dynamical systems theory Contents 1 Introduction 2 2 Irreversibility 3 2.1 Mechanics.

The principal point of this program was a detailed scientific analysis of the orbital and surface experiments data derived from Apollo missions 15, 16, and 17. One of the requirements of this program was the production of detailed photo base maps at a useable scale. NASA in conjunction with the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) commenced a mapping program in early 1973 that would lead to the production of the necessary maps based on the need for certain areas. This paper is designed to present in outline form the neces- sary background informatiox or users to become familiar with the program. MAP FORMAT * The scale chosen for the project was 1:250,000 . The re- search being done required a scale that Principal Investigators (PI'S) using orbital photography could use, but would also serve PI'S doing surface photographic investigations.

  • Announcement – Independent Print Ltd
    ANNOUNCEMENT – INDEPENDENT PRINT LTD Independent Print Limited acquires Independent and Independent on Sunday LONDON, March 25--Independent Print Limited, a company owned by the Lebedev family, has agreed to acquire The Independent and Independent on Sunday newspapers in a deal that will safeguard the future of the business. The agreement provides a commitment by the Lebedev family to invest in the newspapers, which are currently loss-making, and inject new energy and impetus into them. The purchase of the Independent newspapers follows the Lebedevs’ acquisition last year of a 75% shareholding in the London Evening Standard. Since then the Evening Standard’s circulation has risen from 250,000 to 600,000 and it is now read by 1.4 million Londoners daily, substantially increasing its commercial revenues. Evgeny Lebedev last month became Chairman of Evening Standard Ltd. Completion of the transaction is expected to take place in May 2010 following employee consultation and receipt of the relevant regulatory approval. In addition to the London Evening Standard, The Lebedevs also co-own, with President Mikhail Gorbachev, Novaya Gazeta, one of Russia's few pro-democracy newspapers. The paper has a reputation for independence and high-quality journalism. Anna Politkovskaya, whose fearless reports from Chechnya resulted in her assassination in 2006, worked for Novaya Gazeta. Alexander Lebedev said: "I invest in institutions which contribute to democracy and transparency and, at the heart of that, are newspapers which report independently and campaign for the truth to be revealed. I am a supporter of in-depth investigative reporting and campaigns which promote transparency and seek to fight international corruption.
